Dropbox has a free version that allows you 2 GB of free space. This actually a lot of files, but if you need to save a lot of videos or pictures, you will end up needing more space. The Pro version allows you 100 GB of space, but at a pricey $9.99 per month. You can log on to Dropbox from any computer or device and there are apps that give you instant access to your files. You can also download Dropbox to your computer and save files directly to it.
Skydrive works the same way, but you get a huge 7 GB of space for free as opposed to Dropbox's 2 GB. You can also use Skydrive with Microsoft OneNote and you can share files with other email address.
Google Drive is another great option. If you have a gmail account and happen to do a lot through your Google Account, G Drive is the way to go. You get 5 GB of space for free and you can add another 25 GB of space for $2.49 per month! Like Dropbox and Skydrive, you can download G Drive to your computer and save directly to your G Drive rather than saving to your computer and then uploading.
Bottom line, if you need to back up anything from any of your apps on your iPad or iPhone, then you should go with Dropbox. If you like to organize your files in notebooks with OneNote, then Skydrive is your best option. If you have a gmail account and use Google Docs, Blogger, or any of the other 100's of Google Applications, then G Drive is not only the best option for your money, but will be the best way to access and share any of your files.
